After Action Report
The Heat outlasted the Magic 116-105. Heat's scorers couldn't be contained. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Magic rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
